Join us for part one of our free, 3-part series designed for community organizations who are embarking on a facility project. This session will be a lunch and learn (bag lunch, snacks provided) with special guest Esther Carver, Executive Director of Lowell CDC. Lowell CDC’s Mission is to improve the quality of life in the Lowell neighborhood through community engagement, equitable housing and historic diversity.

This first session will help you assess your organization’s financial readiness as we explore:

• How to use financial ratios to understand your organization’s financial health and stability

• How to look at the implications of occupancy costs on your budget and what you might be able to afford

• Strategies to establish a reserve to support a real estate project or other organizational innovation

These workshops are ideal for executive directors, senior managers, and board members who are looking for real estate solutions for their organization. Executive directors and board chairs are strongly encouraged to attend together. We recommend that you attend all three sessions of this series, but each workshop will still provide valuable information if attended on its own.

Time: 11:30 AM – 1:00 PM
